Answer:

The correct answer is e. zoonosis

Explanation:

The disease which is transmitted from animals to humans are called zoonotic disease. So in zoonosis, the primary reservoirs are animals for example in rat-bite fever is the zoonotic disease which is spread by rats.

Bacteria, fungi, virus, protozoa can be the causative agent of the zoonotic disease. When the disease gets into humans then this disease can be spread from humans to humans if the disease is contagious. So here as rat is the primary reservoir therefore the correct answer is a zoonosis.

Why do you think it is so difficult for some people to accept the idea of continental drift?
valina [46]
People tend not to believe/accept things they can't see proof of with their own eyes or things that lack scientific evidence.

Continental drift is something that spans hundreds of thousands of years. People don't live that long to be able to see the position of the continents and land changing over time. Also when Wegener proposed this theory, he couldn't explain how continental drift occurred, so lacking scientific evidence, many people did not believe him.<span />
